I like YouTube. It brings us things from around the world that we wouldn't normally see. Sounds and pictures are brought to us in seconds from all reaches of the globe - some in stunning high definition - if you have the bandwidth.
I was browsing YouTube the other day, not looking for anything in particular, when I stumbled across some uploads from a guy living in remote Western Australia. He has uploaded a set of v-logs - a kind of video blog - which provide a fascinating insight into his rural life and interests. Living in a remote part of the country, he doesn't have access to mainstream broadband (as he describes in one of the v-logs), therefore his uploads are quite sporadic with long periods in between. Nevertheless, I do find them uniquely interesting and I have already learnt so much simply from watching them. Something I didn't know previously was how to find out how much gas is left in a gas bottle. Apparently, if you pour boiling water over it, the part that remains wet and doesn't condense is where there is remaining gas, therefore giving an indication of the gas level.
I'm sure he won't be everyone's cup of tea but he's certainly worth a look. He can be found by searching 'glen1040' in YouTube.
The thoughts, ramblings and musings of a 'man with a plan' to change his life from one of a high paid professional to something completely different... I write about my struggle to achieve this and my work with those affected by anxiety & depression
